Hi

Can anybody tell me how i should fix the crosshead to the piston rod on my Simplex, the construction notes say to use a taper pin no 0000 but i have no idea where to get one of these and the right reamer from.

Thanks Ian

A 0000 size taper pin is 7/64" which may make it easier to find as most of the ME suppliers list them by size though you may have to settle for 3/32" or 1/8" as not so many do them in 64th steps

I think the last time I bought a reamer and some pins they came from EKP
